Selfridges World of Food

Great range of food outlets and options from burgers to sandwiches, shakes, Italian, Japanese and a noodle bar.
Also stocks a bunch of food to take home from cool street vendor style carts.
Prices are a bit higher than I’d expected but reasonable for the quality. Had a milkshake from the American diner and it was huge! Definitely worth a stop if your in the area.

I do like Selfridges but it’s expensive but helpful staff great food!

The food at Tiffinbites is of poor quality. Just a rip-​off if you are of Indian or Pakistani origin. Better off eating at the noodles’ bar.
The service is on par with the ‘quality’ of food served, i. e very poor!
The ‘real Indian food served in real Indian way’ slogan is very misleading as the food is not ‘real’ Indian food but a mish-​mash version to fool gullible non-​Indians…

Fantastic!
The food in Selfridges is great, especially Yo Sushi!
Selfridges used to have a consession of prepared foods, quite sad to see it go.
One thing that does let it down is the Indian restaurant, they do not cook any food on the premesis, merely just reheat food, you could mock up the same over priced food in 5 minutes from Tesco!
Therefore I do not reccommend Tiffin bites!

If you’re in Birmingham as a tourist, the Bullring is a «must visit», with Selfridge’s being one of the main attractions of the place. And while Selfridge’s itself is remarkable in its own right, with Birmingham’s most distinctive landmark, The World of Food is top of the Brum list.
The Food Hall, with a similar theme to Food Halls in Selfridge’s London and Harrod’s, is remarkably different in feel and offerings.
The clean, white, minimalist décor works with all the concessions crammed in, and the noisenoisenoise of it all, combining to make a distinctive, fascinating shopping experience.
There are foods from all over the world, at very expensive prices. It’s mostly fun and kitschy, and very shticky, har har.
There are delicious olives and cheeses and cured meats, in the deli section. Lining the walls, there are foods from Asian, American and European countries that may be hard to find elsewhere in the UK (though with a price tag — £7.49 for a box of Lucky Charms!).
As a Yank, I quite enjoy watching Brits coo over Aunt Jemima pancake syrup, and forking out £4 for it.
The homewares section offers all sorts of highly-​priced, rarely-​purchased items such as an alien-​shaped egg cup, or George Clooney’s favourite coffee maker. You can purchase secial edition Paul Smith Evian water for £3.50, if you’re very well behaved.
The concession restaurants in Selfridge’s World of Food are basic, but fun. Pret A Manger, if you really just need some food. Yo! Sushi if you like punctuation with your lunch, a VERY nice dim sum/​Chinese noodle bar, Tiffinbites (Indian food with a «meh»). And of course, no one can forget Krispy Kreme, for all your sickly sweet, long-​wait needs.
But there is also a newish additon, called Selfridge’s Grill, where we ate today. Done in an understated American diner fashion (NO, that’s not an oxymoron), the offerings are burgers, fish, chicken, or mediterranean veg, on ciabatta, sour dough or as a salad. The menu contains about a dozen items, all in.
It’s all freshly prepared, with an open grill, so you can watch it being done. The kitchen is a tightly run ship, very clean and tidy. I had the mediterranean veg ciabatta, and hubby had the basic burger. Both were fresh and absolutely gorgeous. And, coming in at £6 each, very affordable.
I can’t say enough good about this sandwich I had. Fresh herbed soft cheese, and enough grilled veg to sink a spleen combined with deliciously spiced ciabatta and made me one happy diner.
They serve a few wines and about half a dozen beers, so if you fancy a glass of Veuve Clicquot with your lunch, go for it: £10.50 will buy you the slightly odd pleasure.
Either way, get ye down to Selfridge’s Food Hall, and have a gander.

Nice but mostly overpriced. You can get better food elsewhere. It is nice to try as a one off but really too expensive for what you get. There are much nicer places around the city centre to eat. If you want to try something new though, then this is a great place for so much choice under one roof.

I don’t rate many of the eating outlets in Selfridges. The noodles are overpriced, sushi isn’t that fresh and the pretzels, soups and salads merely average. However, on Saturday, I ate at the Pret a Manager outlet and really enjoyed it. Service was quick and friendly, and my hot falafel wrap hit the spot. My other half had Thai chicken curry soup with rice, and he said it was an ideal winter warmer. At under a tenner with drinks included, it made a changed from the usual overpriced, sub-​standard stuff served there.

What a great place to spend a cold winter’s lunchtime in the heart of Birmingham city centre! You can sample so many different delicacies from all around the world that you would never get a chance to try anywhere else. Variety is the spice of life as they say.
The place itself is very pleasing to the eye, with the white floors and the extremely futuristic architecture and surroundings.
The food can be just as stylish, and if you are not tempted by the more unusual treats on display, then the sushi is a great starting point — healthy and fresh!

Yo sushi in the Selfridges food hall is one of te nicer of the food concessions. There’s a reasonable amount of space and service usually ok albeit ridiculously over prices for sushi!

The world of food at Selfridges is absolutely fantastic. The range of products both for sale to take home and the mini cafes that are in store.
I had never sampled sushi until Selfridges opened and the Yo Sushi bar is unbelievable and perfect to a newcomer to the food. There are always huge queues at all times of the day for all the mini cafes however, and so be prepared to wait for the delicaciesbut believe me it is more than worth it!
There are lots of odd delicacies such as scorpions in jelly which are fairly cheap for funny gifts or to scare a little brother or sister! The ice cube flies are extremely convincing!
The open plan layout of the food court is really inviting and cannot be ignored!

When shopping in Birmingham, visit the food hall in Selfridges for lunch. Not only do they sell food to take home, there’s also small open concessions selling food to eat in, ranging from small meals to glorious deserts.
In my opinion, as good as Harrods food hall but more contemporary & open plan.
A true delight — & don’t forget if you like what you’ve tasted, you can buy the ingerdients in-​store & take them home.

The complex is really nice from the outside and inside. the bottom is the food court. you can find everything. They have a really big sweet section.
They have krispy crèmes and they always give you one free as a complimentary!
The only bad thing is if you look up on the bottom level the ceiling looks ugly and you can see wires doesn’t feel very safe.
Apart from that its a really nice place :) but expensive but good quality so treat your self with the ice cream there so amazing and you can try before you buy and they don’t mind if you try like 5. Ive done this and the lady didn’t mind.

There is a great variety of food, some of which is a little weird for my liking! It has the good old favourites such as krispy kreme and the jelly bean factory!

Its without a doubt my favourite floor of the store! The food literally ranges from A — Z and you can find plenty of usual and unusual items in here — prices are obviously higher than normal supermarkets.
The staff are lovely and helpful here and the place is always buzzing with activity, from sights to smells, you’ll just feel like your in another world — the world of food!
With plenty of specialist stands such as Krispy Kreme, Reese’s confectionary and Jelly Belly, there is much to choose from here, for kids and adults alike!

The world of food, downstairs in Selfridges is absolutely amazing. It’s spread over a huge space housing plenty of items you’d find in Asda, but also mirrored with plenty of stuff you certainly wouldn’t.
There’s stuff you’l probably never want to try (dried ant’s) and the like but plenty of stuff you would. There’s lots of food stuff imported from around the world, most famously the Krispy Kreme brand of doughnuts.
Amongst the piles of food are small food ‘stalls’ with prepared food like curry, pasta’s, meats etc. You can also sit yourself down on a stool and grab yourself some sushi if you’re feeling peckish
